November Outing FRIDAY 4 November

It's important to note that this month's outing has been arranged for the First Friday of the month rather than our usual Thursday.

We are heading out towards Nana Glen. First, meet at the Botanic Gardens in time for departure at 9:30am if you are looking to car-share. Otherwise meet at the first stop at 10:15

First Stop - Synchronicity Farm 632 Orara Way Nana GlenOn its website Synchronicity Farm is described as a social enterprise with a big vision. Joshua and Tomoko Allen have a 33 acre property on the Orara River at Nana Glen. They have built a business centred around growing food, running courses for various activities from stone masonry to beer brewing and running a very busy 'Kids' Farm' to share a little bit of farm life with kids of all ages. They also have a community farm shop to sell local produce. You can read all about it on the web at: www.synchronicityfarm.com.

For our visit we have arranged a short guided walking tour which includes viewing the various food gardens & the compost area. Cost of the tour is usually $10 for adults but will be provided for $5.

We have also arranged morning tea at Synchronicity - scones & jam & cream. Scones are baked in their wood fired oven. Cost of morning tea is $5 per person.
